AURA relies on the Sentinel Agent, a next-generation lightweight security agent designed for ultimate enterprise portability and mathematical precision.
With the v3.0 upgrade, AURA has shifted from a basic passive logging tool into an interconnected Hive Mind orchestrator. Agents stream telemetry over raw WebSockets to the Central Gateway, where an AI Engine executes Anomaly Detection. When advanced ransomware or anomalous behavior is flagged, the Gateway autonomously broadcasts a suspend_process network mandate, safely freezing the attack in RAM before it can act.
- Isolation Forest Heuristics: The Gateway mathematically analyzes telemetry streams for anomalies (
anomalous_score > 0.85). - Autonomous Safety Nets: If an endpoint is compromised, the AI doesn't wait. It globally freezes the localized threat context in RAM instantly and drops an Alert into the UI.
- Deep Freeze Architecture: AURA natively uses OS-level handles (
p.Suspend()) to halt malicious process execution threads. The virus is trapped in memory—unable to encrypt files, but surviving for forensic analysis. - Forensic Snapshots: If the Admin opts to "Kill", the Agent extracts the raw malware binary
.exepayload from RAM, dumps it to a local./quarantine/lockbox for reverse-engineering, and executes aSIGKILLtermination. - Hardware Whitelists: The Agent protects its own execution environment. Terminal chains containing
agent.exeandgateway.exeare mathematically excluded from AI freezing loops to prevent system bricking.
- Interactive Websockets: All
ai_alertsare pumped into an active-response HTML dashboard. - False-Positive Reversals: A massive [IGNORE (RESUME)] button allows Administrators to review a frozen threat. Clicking it broadcasts a thaw order, effortlessly dropping the legitimate application back into standard execution without data loss!
- Big Data Observability: Driven by VictoriaMetrics, allowing O(1) time-series tracking of Agent memory overhead, Goroutine efficiency, and event load.
You must have Docker running to support the backend VictoriaMetrics storage cluster.
docker-compose up -dThe gateway is the Central Brain and Dashboard server.
go run ./cmd/gatewayGo to http://localhost:8080.
(Requires Admin Privileges for Process Handle manipulations)
go run ./cmd/agent- Open the dashboard in your browser.
- Click MOCK THREAT DETECTED! on the top menu bar.
- The Gateway will inject a simulated zero-day Ransomware detection event.
- Watch the Sentinel Agent intercept the WebSockets push, drop process isolation logic, and the UI populate with the Review Card!
